The former president's speech at the Libertarian Party's National Convention on Saturday was met with overwhelming boos.
The Libertarian Party on Sunday announced its delegates selected Chase Oliver to lead them into the 2024 presidential election, while former President Donald Trump claimed he would have “absolutely” won the party’s nomination if he wanted it.
Oliver welcomed the news in a post on his account on X, formerly Twitter.
“There is no better unifying ticket in this party than this one. It’s time to unify and move forward for liberty,” Oliver, a party activist who has previously ran for Congress from Georgia, wrote.
The announcement came at the conclusion of the Libertarian Party’s National Convention in Washington D.C., which grew tense at times, including during Trump’s speech on Saturday, which was met with boos.
“You should nominate me or at least vote for me,” Trump told the audience.
